Is now a good time to mention that I quite liked the Mercy meta? 
-
Dive fights were so quick - down to positioning and execution, w/ tiny quirks. Mercy meta slowed down the game, opened up a lot of new strategies, & added a layer of complex decision-making into teamfights. Pick value decreased but as CP said below, possible positive. Solid meta.
Those who boil it down to "complex lol just res" or Valk winning fights 90% of the time either haven't looked at the numbers vs. dive meta or don't understand how Mercy interacts with the larger cast & teamfights. Or they're salty they have to play it in ranked.

at pro level I agree, but ranked level—where majority of players are coming from—mercy was just anti-carry/momentum killing pest mercy is necessary for the meta for the reasons you describe, i think they’ll have to tune back up, but patch was necessary to put out the ranked fire

Agreed, and even when discussing pro play there were many detriments that made it harder to watch, harder to see the teamfight advantages, etc. My comments are almost entirely focused around the strategy involved, which I think was cool and remained 'unsolved'.
